Listening 03:33

Instead of speaking You could listen Give it a shot You don't need to talk I talk a lot, I play with my phone Whenever I am out, whenever I'm at home Yeah, I talk a lot, except for when I don't Ignoring everything because I'm in the zone Why should I leave the house? I do it less and less I'm not chasing clout, I'm not there to impress Plus, when people are around, I get awkward quick First I have to speak, then I'm regretting it I have a bad habit of cutting people off When it occurs I'm releasing my words Before I lose my thought It would seem I'm in the midst of a change A change you've been witnessing I could stand to develop the power The power of listening I'm owning up, it's something I can fix I'm an older dog attempting some new tricks Think it scares my friends, they wonder who this is They put their fingers up, shaped like a crucifix Used to speak my mind, I've done it now and then I've seen glaring eyes, I won't do that again If I have my way, I'll just be staying in Then I won't have a need for changing anything I have a bad habit of cutting people off When it occurs I'm releasing my words Before I lose my thought It would seem I'm in the midst of a change A change you've been witnessing I could stand to develop the power The power of listening It would seem I'm in the midst of a change A change you've been witnessing I could stand to develop the power The power of listening Instead of speaking You could listen Give it a shot You don't need to talk

Ignore 03:21

There's nothing new under the sun I do what I do and at times that's enough There's no secret, just the value of time Our life is finite and you should keep that in mind I'm not trying to compete at all But either way, it's inevitable There's only so much time available And so I'm more inclined to let it go I don't mind or care what competition Has been doing, yeah, I'm sure They can do them and I'll do me And I'll select "Ignore" I'm not fearless but I'm not keeping score I don't mind losing, I've done that often before Now when I'm on the wrong side of a laugh There's a much better chance it will roll right off of my back I'm not trying to compete at all But either way, it's inevitable There's only so much time available And so I'm more inclined to let it go I don't mind or care what competition Has been doing, yeah, I'm sure They can do them and I'll do me And I'll select "Ignore" Why should I care? I don't even like you I'll ignore it You don't do what I do I don't mind or care what competition Has been doing, yeah, I'm sure They can do them and I'll do me And I'll select "Ignore" I don't mind or care what competition Has been doing, yeah, I'm sure They can do them and I'll do me And I'll select "Ignore"

I will no be there so you can plan for that Because I know myself and how I react And I should socialize with kindness and grace That's why we won't be meeting up face to face Yes, you were thoughtful, and I thank you for that But I'll feel awful if forced to interact And I should socialize with kindness and grace That's why we won't be meeting up face to face You can send a message, don't call I'm not feeling social at all And there's really nothing that's wrong I'm not feeling social at all And I should socialize with kindness and grace That's why we won't be meeting up face to face You can send a message, don't call I'm not feeling social at all And there's really nothing that's wrong I'm not feeling social at all You can send a message, don't call I'm not feeling social at all And there's really nothing that's wrong I'm not feeling social at all

You're so clever How long did it take to dream it up? Well, whatever it was It wasn't enough You should know better Here I am, I guess I'm mildly annoyed I think you grossly misjudged Don't play 'cause I'm not a toy And as time goes on I want less and less To do with anyone And maybe I was like this all along You can move on Tell me, are we there yet? Did you get what you want? Are you satisfied? Did it meet your demands? Honestly, what did you expect? Did you get what you want? This was all so poorly planned Is that your offer? Pretty sad, but hey, at least you tried Tempting as it isn't I'm gonna have to decline That's right Here's the shocker You're not the only one dissatisfied So give that some thought Go take the rest of your life And as time goes on I want less and less To do with anyone And maybe I was like this all along You can move on Tell me, are we there yet? Did you get what you want? Are you satisfied? Did it meet your demands? Honestly, what did you expect? Did you get what you want? This was all so poorly planned And as time goes on I want less and less To do with anyone And maybe I was like this all along You can move on Tell me, are we there yet? Did you get what you want?

Imagine me attempting a cold read Gathering clues with intent for dishonesty You couldn't help yourself It was a secret you just had to say I was thinking of something else And so I didn't hear you anyway Yeah, I'm fine Keeping it private I won't read your mind I'm not a psychic Might be polite but let's make this one thing clear I'm not the type who will say what you want to hear You couldn't help yourself It was a secret you just had to say I was thinking of something else And so I didn't hear you anyway Yeah, I'm fine With keeping it private I won't read your mind I'm not a psychic What you see is what you get Shocking as that is It falls in line with my identity No pulling the wool over your eyes I don't have the time, the desire And I don't have the energy Yeah, I'm fine With keeping it private I won't read your mind I'm not a psychic

I think you know that outside I'm useless I couldn't camp if I tried So if you need me to hunt and gather Then we're not gonna survive (Survive) Let's stay at home and let's watch a movie We got a big ol' TV (Big ol' TV) And it won't matter if it's raining We can sit comfortably Inside, outside, whatever occurs It doesn't matter to me if you are there But if I'm being honest, I still would prefer To not be bit by a tick, or have to fight off a bear There's so much we can do With or without the light We can still look at the moon And the stars in the night We got electricity And all the stuff that I like Here in the great indoors (Great indoors) Still, if your heart's set on going out there Well, I'm not saying I won't (I won't) Maybe someday I'll be an outdoorsman I wouldn't hold out much hope (Not much hope) Home entertainment, there's such a big list And we can check the results (Results) So many choices, they're almost endless For two consenting adults (Anything we want) Inside, outside, whatever occurs It doesn't matter to me if you are there (If you are there) But if I'm being honest, I still would prefer To not be bit by a tick, or have to fight off a bear There's so much we can do With or without the light We can still look at the moon And the stars in the night We got electricity And all the stuff that I like Here in the great indoors (Great indoors) There's so much we can do With or without the light We can still look at the moon And the stars in the night We got electricity And all the stuff that I like Here in the great indoors (Great indoors) There's so much we can do With or without the light We can still look at the moon And the stars in the night We got electricity And all the stuff that I like Here in the great indoors (Great indoors)

Greetings, salutations Other fancy ways to say hello You read too much into my politeness And now it's time for you to go I was just being nice It was not an offer Being polite And now honestly It can't be ignored This is awkward There is the door You can leave Greetings, salutations Wouldn't think of introductions as mistakes Had I known what I was getting into I would have turned around or slammed the brakes I was just being nice It was not an offer Being polite And now honestly It can't be ignored This is awkward There is the door You can leave Stop coming on strong You've got it wrong Go home, call off the search Here's how it will be You won't see me if I see you first I was just being nice It was not an offer Being polite And now honestly It can't be ignored This is awkward There is the door You can leave Just being nice It was not an offer Being polite And now honestly It can't be ignored This is awkward There is the door You can leave

It's all fair, or it seems like it is But one day you figure out the game's rigged It feels wrong and you've gotta play along If you want to win But it's not the best impression When my integrity is called into question It only proves that you really don't know me And you never will I'm supposed to look the other way And disregard how uncomfortable it feels To give the impression it's all okay As if it's a level playing field Play ball No, I'm not gonna play, I'm gone There will be no game at all Play ball No, I'll just take the ball and go home I will not play ball Maybe I could keep it all withheld But then I'd have to live with myself So excuse me, I'm heading out I'd say it's just as well I'm supposed to look the other way And disregard how uncomfortable it feels To give the impression it's all okay As if it's a level playing field Play ball No, I'm not gonna play, I'm gone There will be no game at all Play ball No, I'll just take the ball and go home I will not play ball I'm supposed to look the other way And disregard how uncomfortable it feels To give the impression it's all okay As if it's a level playing field Play ball No, I'm not gonna play, I'm gone There will be no game at all Play ball No, I'll just take the ball and go home I will not play ball Play ball No, I'm not gonna play, I'm gone There will be no game at all Play ball No, I'll just take the ball and go home I will not play ball

Are you refreshed? Did you think that you should drink that? Yeah, I guess I can see how you would think that What's going on? Let me be specific Were you wronged Or was this self-inflicted? And maybe it's useless Are there excuses or explanations? Intentional movements I'm not out to prove this I'm out of patience It's knowing the difference When you are quitting You're not trying And don't be a hypocrite You're not winning You are whining Insist on your innocence But when there's no one to blame That's a shame 'Cause you're left with yourself I perspire Yeah, the load has gotten heavy And I'm tired But you knew that much already What's the plan? Are you keeping that a secret? I don't give a damn I'm not whining, I'm not weeping And maybe it's useless Are there excuses or explanations? Intentional movements I'm not out to prove this I'm out of patience It's knowing the difference When you are quitting You're not trying And don't be a hypocrite You're not winning You are whining Insist on your innocence But when there's no one to blame That's a shame 'Cause you're left with yourself There's nothing else to observe So keep your word, and keep your help Remember, I'm the one without a heart And you would know You said it yourself It's knowing the difference When you are quitting You're not trying And don't be a hypocrite You're not winning You are whining Insist on your innocence But when there's no one to blame That's a shame 'Cause you're left with yourself

Normal is an Illusion 03:57

Normal is an illusion I'll explain what I mean What we choose to display How we wanna be seen Normal is an illusion So consider the source How we are in public Who we are behind closed doors And we all have our masks That we place high on shelves And more often than not We're at odds with ourselves Normal is an illusion And it's hard to define What's normal for the spider Is chaos to the fly Normal is an illusion And we all can be fooled You can see through me Like I'm seeing through you And we all have our masks That we place high on shelves And more often than not We're at odds with ourselves There's pressure with how you're supposed to be It leads to confusion 'Cause normal isn't something you'll achieve It's an illusion There's pressure with how you're supposed to be It leads to confusion 'Cause normal isn't something you'll achieve It's an illusion There's pressure with how you're supposed to be It leads to confusion 'Cause normal isn't something you'll achieve It's an illusion

Metaphorically Speaking 03:23

How'd I get Where I am? Don't question it There's no plan The world's a casino And life is a slot machine I hit the jackpot somehow Yeah, I'm not swimming in cash In the revenue streams But still, I've won where it counts When you're growing up Time's a bottomless well And your room is like Heaven Other people are Hell Sure, I may be a bum That's not the worst I could be If I'm speaking metaphorically If I knew How this works Would that be Like a curse? The world's a casino And life is a slot machine I hit the jackpot somehow Yeah, I'm not swimming in cash In the revenue streams But still, I've won where it counts When you're growing up Time's a bottomless well And your room is like Heaven Other people are Hell Sure, I may be a bum That's not the worst I could be If I'm speaking metaphorically Is it some kind of agency? I'm not sure of that Wandering aimlessly I'm not shocked Was there some kind of blueprint? Think I've heard of that Am I just being stupid? Sure, why not? When you're growing up Time's a bottomless well And your room is like Heaven Other people are Hell Sure, I may be a bum That's not the worst I could be If I'm speaking metaphorically

Glenn Case image

Glenn Case Spokane, Washington

I write music.

I listen to music.

I genuinely just love music.

I have a song available in "Rock Band" and that makes me smile.

Yeah, I'm the guy who did the soundtrack for "The New Adventures of Captain S".

I probably release too many albums, but I do attempt to find a good balance between quality and quantity.

Thank you. ... more
